"Those who say that life is only a combination of misfortunes mean that life itself is a misfortune. If it is a misfortune, then death is happiness."(McMahon 231)
"I am not romantic, you know; I never was. I ask only a comfortable home; and considering Mr. Collins's character, connection, and situation in life, I am convinced that my chance of happiness with him is as fair as most people can boast on entering the marriage state."(Austen Chapter 22)
